The loss of the en.einy has, however, been very great, and he left three pieces of cannon in our hands. • - I cannot sufficiently applaud the • conduet of the troops throughout this aaion. The .entquy's posi tions were formidable, and he took them up with his usual ability and celerity, and defended them most•gailaatly: But .

On 'Which the great body of infantry bad been - postal, as a support to -these troops, and as a re serve to the whole army. In addition to this sup port, these troops had that of the cavalry in the rear of their right. The . enemy's attack began in several columns upon the whole of the troops en this height ; on the left they advanced, notwithitanding the fire of the .riflemen, close to the - 50th regiment, 'and were checked and driven back only by the bayonets. of that corps. The 2d battalion, 43d regiment, was . like Wise closely engaged - with' them hi the road .which leads into Virniera; a part of that corps having been ordered into the church-yard to pre vent them from penetrating into the town. On; the right of the position they were. repulsed by the bayonets of the „97th regiment, which corps was successfully supported by the 2d battalion 52d re giment, which, by an advance in column, took the enemy in flank... Besides this opposition given to the attack of the enemy on our advanced guard by their own exer tions, they were attacked in flank by Brigadier-se- nerol Ackland's Brigade in its advance to its posi tion _ - on the heights on the left, and a cannonade was kept up on the pap; !of the, enemy's columns by the artillery ,on those heights. . • At length, aftera most desperate contest, the ene . • , my was driven back in confusion from this attack, with the loss of seven pieces of cannon, 'many pri, soners, and a great number of officers and soldiers killed and wounded. He was pursued by the de tachment Of the 20th Light Dragoons, but the ene my's _ . cavalry were so much superior in numbers that, .this dejachment has suffered,much, and Lieut.-Col.-, Taylor was unfortunately killed. . General Loishn joined General Laborde in tl4 course of last night at Torres Vedras ; and I under stand that both began their march towards Lisbon this morning: I also hear that General.Junot ha's arrived this day at Turres Vedras, with a small corps from Lisbon ; and conclude that the .whole of the French ?rmy will bessembled between Tor res Vedras and the Capital in the course of a few days. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) ARTHUR WEI,LESLEY. To the Right Hon. Lord Castlereagh, &c.. MY LORD, Head• Quarters, Maceira, AUgust it, 1808. The Report which I have the honour to enclose to your Lordship, made at my request by Lieute tenant-General Sir Arthur Wellesley, conveys infor: oration which cannot but prove highly gratifying . tO his Majesty. • On my landing this mottling, I found that the enerny's'attgcic had already commenced, and I was fortunate enough to reach the field of adion in time to witness and approve of every . disposition that bad been, and was afterwards made by Sir AP , thur Wellesley, his comprehensive' mind furnishing a ready resource in every emergency, and rentlering it quite unnecessary to dired any alteration. I am happy on this occasion, to bear testimony to the great spirit and good condud displayed by all the troops composing this gallant army in this well con tested anion. I send this dispatch by Captain Campbell,' Carty to, Sir Arthur Wellesley, no person being better qualified to give your Lordship information. I have the honour to be, &c. (Signed) HARRY BURRAIM, Lieut.-General. -• To the Right Lion. Lord Castlerea gh, &c. SIR,. Yimiera, August 2t. , J have the honour to report to you, that the ene my attacked us in our position at Vimiera this morning: ,The Village of Virniera• stands in a valley, thro' whidh runs the River Madeira ; at the back, and, to. the Westward and Northward of this village is a mountain, the Western Point of which ,touches the spa, and the Eastern is separated by a deep ravine' . from the heights, over. which passes the road which . leads from Loitrinha and the Northward, to Vl miera. The greater part of the infantry, the Ist, 2d, 3d, 4th, sth, and Bth brigades were poited on this mountain, with eight pieces of artillery ; Major-General.,HilVs brigade being on - the right, Majoi-General Ferguson's- on the left, having one battalion on the, heights, separate&from the moun tain. On the Eastern and Southern side of the town is'a hill which' is entirely Commanded, parti 7 cularly on its right,. by the mountain to the west ward of the town, and commanding all the ground in the neighbourhood to the southward and east ward, on which Brigadier-General Fane was-Posted with his riflemen and the 50th regiment, and Bri gadier-General Anstruther with his brigade, with half a brigade of six-pounders and half a brigade of 'nine-pounders, which had been ordered to the po sition in the-course of last night. The ground Over which passes the road froni Lourinha commanded the left of this height, and it had not 'pecn occupied, excepting by a piquet; as the camp had been taken up only for one night ; and there was no water in the neighbourhood of this height.,.. : The cavalry and the reserve of artillery were in the valley, between the hills on which the infantry stood ';- both flanking and supporting Brigaclier-Ge neral Fane's advanced guard. The enemy first appeared at eight o'clock in tbe morning, in large bodies of cavalry on our l e f t, upon • o• the heights on the, road to Lourinha : and it was. soon obvious that the attack would be made upon our advanced paid,' and the left of our pasition ; and Major-General P'erguson's Brigade was hum-. diately moved across the ravine to the heights go the road "t 6 Lourinha, with three pieces of cannon : be was followed successively by Brigadier-General" Nightingale, with his. brigade, and three pieces of cannon ; Briga4ier . -General,Ackland, with his bri gade; and Brigadier-General Bowes, with his bri gade. These troops were formed (Major-General .rerguspn . 's ht f igade in the first line; flrigidier-Ge,. • neral Nightingale's In the Second ; and Brigadier-. General Bowes's and _Ackland's, - in columns in the rear) on those heights, with their right upon tie Valley which leads into Vimiera ; and their left upon •• the other ravine, which serrates these heights front the range whichierrniva ies at the landiu.g • Ett: Mthese la aceira. On st mentioned heig4o, o tlie .• $. Portuguese troops ' - which 'bad been in the botfeni near Viiniera, were posted in thu first iustat:ce, and they were supported by Brigadjer-General , . brigade. • '• The troops of the advanced guard on the beight to the southkvard find eastward' 6 . -the town we t -e deemed sufticitnt for its defence, an - a Maja-Getic ial Hill was moved to the centre of' , the mountain Nearly at the same time the pnem s y!s attack commenced upon the heights on the road io Lou rinha. 'This attack was supported by a large body of cavalry, and was made with the usual im petuosity of the French troops. It was received with steadiness by Major-General Ferguson's Bri gade, consisting of the 36th 40th, and list regi . . .ments ; and these : corps charged as soon as the enemy approached' them, who gave way, and they continued to advance upon him, supported by the 'B2d, onp of the corps of Brigadier-General Night. ingale's brigade, which, as the ground extended, afterwards formed part of the first line ; by the 2gth Regiment, and by Brigadier-general Bowes's and Ackland's Brigades,- while Brigadier-General Craufurd's Brigade, and the Portuguese troops, in two lines, advanced along the height on the left. In the advance of Major-General Ferguson's bri gade six pieces of cannon were taken from the ene my, with many prisoners, and vast numbers were killed and wounded. The enemy afterward 4 made an attempt to re cover a part of his artillery, by attacking the 71st and 82d regiments, which were .halted in a valley in which it had been taken. These regiments're tired, from the low groUnds in the valley to the heights, where they halted, faced about, fired, and advanced upon the enerny, who had by, that time arrived in the IoW ground, and they thus obliged him again to retire with.great loss. In this action, in which the whole of the French. force in Portugal was employed under the corn . mand of the Duke D'Abrantes in person, in which the enemy was certainly superior in cavalry and ar tillery, and in which not mote than half the British army was aEtually engaged, he has sustained a signal defeat, and' has lost thirteen pieces of cannon, twen ty-three ammunition waggons, with powder, shells, stores of all descriptions,' and twenty thousand rounds of musket ammunition. One General Offi cer (Beniere) has' been wounded and taken prisoner, and a great many Officers and soldiets have been killed, wounded, and taken.
